Your Privacy Matters

Web SuperKit — a sidebar for developers & designers — is built with a privacy-first mindset. Every single tool runs entirely inside your browser— no data is ever sent to external servers, no behaviour is tracked, and no personal information is collected.

Privacy Highlights

Designed to respect you

100% Local Processing

Every tool runs entirely inside your browser — nothing leaves your device.

Zero Data Collection

We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data whatsoever.

Lightweight (<1 MB)

Tiny footprint, zero third-party SDKs, no analytics bundles.

User-Controlled Features

Every tool activates only when you explicitly trigger it.

Data Handling

How Web SuperKit handles your data

All processing happens in your browser

Every tool — from CSS inspection to color picking, from element analysis to screenshot generation — runs entirely within your local browser environment. There is no cloud backend, no API calls to our servers, and no remote processing of any kind.

No personal data is collected, stored, or transmitted

We do not collect your name, email, IP address, browser fingerprint, or any identifiable information. Web SuperKit has no analytics pipeline, no crash-reporting service, and no telemetry of any kind.

No third-party analytics or tracking scripts

The extension bundle contains zero third-party tracking SDKs — no Google Analytics, no Mixpanel, no Segment, no Hotjar. Our install size stays under 1 MB specifically because we refuse to bundle unnecessary code.

No remote servers involved

Web SuperKit does not communicate with any external server during normal operation. If a specific tool makes a network request, it happens only when you explicitly trigger that tool — from your browser — and is limited to the data required to complete that action.

Local Storage Only

What data is stored — and where

Web SuperKit stores a small amount of data to remember your preferences between sessions. Here is exactly what is saved:

chrome.storage.local — on your device only
Pinned & favourite toolsSo your preferred tools appear first in the dock
UI settings (theme, layout, dock position)To restore the extension's appearance between sessions
Custom keyboard shortcutsTo activate tools with your configured key bindings
Tool-specific preferencesE.g. last-used color format, converter defaults, etc.

This data is stored exclusively on your device and is never synced, transmitted, or accessible by us.

Transparent Permissions

Every permission — explained

We request only what is strictly necessary. Here is what each permission does and exactly why it is needed.

sidePanel

Display the sidebar dock on any page

Web SuperKit lives in a side panel that opens on any website. This permission lets the extension render its full UI — tool dock, settings, and active tool views — directly in the browser's side panel area on the page you choose.

activeTab

Access the current tab temporarily

Grants temporary, on-demand access to the active tab only when you interact with a tool. The extension has no background access to any tab you haven't explicitly opened a tool on.

scripting

Inject tool scripts on demand

Enables powerful in-page tools such as the CSS inspector, color picker, element analyzer, and visual editor. Scripts are injected only when you activate a specific tool — never silently on page load.

tabs

Read the active tab's URL and title

Used exclusively to display the current page's URL, title, and favicon in the sidebar header and toolbar. This data never leaves your device and is used only for in-extension UI — no browsing history is recorded or transmitted.

webNavigation

Detect page navigation for toolbar updates

When you navigate to a new page, this permission signals the extension to refresh its toolbar state and tool availability. No browsing history is recorded, stored, or transmitted — the data is used ephemerally and discarded immediately.

storage

Save your preferences locally

Used to persist your pinned tools, UI settings, custom shortcuts, and tool-specific preferences using the browser's built-in storage API. This data is stored exclusively on your device and never leaves it.

unlimitedStorage

Store larger tool data without limits

Some tools — such as media extraction, asset collections, and colour palette exports — may need to store more than the default 5 MB storage quota. This permission removes that ceiling so large datasets can be saved reliably, entirely on your device.

What happens on a webpage (DOM & Shadow DOM)

What the extension reads

  • DOM structure needed for the tool you activate (e.g. the element you click/hover).
  • Computed CSS styles, box model metrics, and attributes for inspection tools.
  • Visible text/colors/fonts only when required by a specific tool.

What the extension injects / modifies

  • Injects a UI dock/panel into a dedicated container and renders it inside a Shadow DOM to avoid CSS conflicts.
  • Attaches event listeners for tool interactions (click, hover, key shortcuts) while the tool is open.
  • May temporarily add overlays/highlights (e.g. outlines, measurement guides) and removes them when you close the tool.

These operations happen only on the page where you activate Web SuperKit, and the data stays in your browser.

Clear Commitments

What Web SuperKit does not do

  • Collect any personal data
  • Track your browsing history or behaviour
  • Send data to external servers
  • Use third-party analytics or tracking (e.g. Google Analytics)
  • Show advertisements
  • Sell or share data with third parties
  • Run scripts in the background without your interaction
  • Request unnecessary permissions
Security

Security & transparency

Minimal permission footprint

We reviewed every permission request against the extension's features. If a permission is listed, there is a concrete UI or tool that relies on it. The sidePanel and activeTab permissions allow the extension to operate on the page you choose — not to monitor your browsing.

Activated only on your action

Content scripts and tool logic run only when you explicitly open a tool or use a shortcut. There is no persistent background monitoring of any page.

Designed for user control

You can disable any tool, remove shortcuts, and reset all settings at any time from the extension's settings panel. Uninstalling the extension immediately removes all locally stored preferences.

No hidden code paths

The extension follows Chrome's Manifest V3 standard, which enforces strict limits on background behaviour and remote code execution. There are no remotely loaded scripts or dynamic code evaluation.

Policy Updates

Changes to this policy

If we make meaningful changes to this privacy policy — for example, if a future version of the extension introduces new data handling behaviour — we will update this page and communicate the change clearly through the Chrome Web Store update notes. We will never silently change how data is handled. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
